Surface gravity waves of the Boussinesq equation

Abstract

This article is devoted to exact solutions of the Boussinesq equation that models nonlinear shallow water waves. For this we use the Hirota bilinear method and differential constrains. Out solutions describe in particular the motion of the wave packets, waves on soliton and "dancing" waves. We present a simple method for multiplication of solutions of the Hirota equation which allow us to generate more complex structures from the waves.
